Restored in 1991 the TR still presents very well today and is accompanied by a comprehensive history file including a number of invoices detailing the restoration. Uprated Minilite alloy wheels with bolt on hubs are currently fitted. Sporting a Motolita steering wheel, the TR is fitted with the much sought after surrey top and a brand new mohair hood. A Heritage Certificate and UK V5C registration document are offered with the car.
